LB Performance CB95 Broom5-28
Replace Radiator Hoses Replace Radiator Hoses
Radiator hoses should be replaced if worn or frayed.
Replacement parts are listed in Section 7, Illustrated
Parts List (IPL).
This procedure should only be
performed when the equipment is not operating.
DO NOT remove the radiator cap while
the engine is still hot. The radiator is under pressure.
Removing the cap could cause serious injury.
1. Turn off ignition, remove key, and allow the engine to
cool down before proceeding:
2. Remove the radiator surge tank cap.
3. Drain radiator into a suitable container.
4. To remove upper hose, loosen the two hose clamps
and disconnect. If clamps are not damaged, retain
for installation.
5. To remove lower hose, loosen the two hose clamps
and disconnect. If clamps are not damaged, retain
for installation.
6. Install new hoses in reverse order of procedures
above.
WINTERIZING FOR STORAGE
Perform the following procedures to prepare the machine
for winterizing and storage.
1. Store the machine in a dry, protected area:
• Cover seat with plastic. Place a “DO NOT OPERATE”
tag on the main control panel.
• Cover all exposed control panels with tarps or
plastic.
• Ensure all cab doors and windows are closed and
seal properly.
• Ensure the tires are properly inated.
• Replace worn or damaged decals if needed.
2. Inspect the machine thoroughly and repair worn or
damaged parts. Inspect all hoses, couplers, ttings
and cylinders. Tighten loose ttings and replace any
worn hoses found.
3. Lubricate all grease points:
• Coat all exposed cylinder shafts with lithium-based
grease.
• Ensure all exposed threads are lubricated.
• Ensure cables are lubricated and move freely.
• If the machine has high- and low-speed chains, be
sure they are oiled.
4. Check air lter. Clean or replace air lter elements if
needed.
5. Check engine oil level and ll if needed.
• Drain dirty engine oil, ll with new oil and run the
engine ve minutes to allow the oil to penetrate
components.
To avoid the danger of exhaust fume
poisoning, DO NOT operate the engine in a closed
building without proper ventilation. Check hydraulic oil
sight gauge and ll if needed.
Hydraulic oil that is contaminated
must be drained, the lter elements replaced and
the hydraulic tank relled. Failure to perform this
maintenance procedure if needed could result in
premature failure of the pumps or motors.
6. Ensure the fuel tank is full to prevent condensation
in the fuel tank. Add cold-weather additive when
appropriate.
7. If machine is equipped with Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF),
the DEF may stored in the machine’s tank up to four
months. If storing any longer, drain the DEF uid into
an approved container.
